Good Thing the Uneducated Troops Were There

John Kerry, Joe Biden, and Chuck Hagel were aboard a military helicopter in Afghanistan when a snowstorm forced them to have an emergency landing. The three Senators were stuck up in the mountains for a while until American troops could get them out of there by land and back on their journey. I bet these three had some serious pucker factor.

Kerry, who said that people who did not get an education ended up in Iraq, thanked the troops for helping the hapless Senators out of their tough situation. It is probably a good thing that a bunch of those uneducated troops were there or these three Senators might have been featured on You Tube having their heads hacked off by some Muslim who would be defended by CAIR.

What were these three doing over there anyway? Shouldn’t they be back here working? What are we paying all these people for anyway? It is bad enough we have three Senators getting paid a salary by the taxpayers to miss votes while they run around campaigning for the presidency but now these whack jobs are in Afghanistan when they are supposed to be on a “district work period” (Congress speak meaning 13 days off around a one day Federal Holiday).

Kerry might not think the troops are all that bright but they were smart enough to get him out of there and they were professional enough to do it with no regard to his comments. If they had been less than professional they would have left these three to be taken off our hands by the very people Kerry and his liberal colleagues want us to make nice with.

Maybe next time we can pay the pilot NOT to land before letting them out…

    I didn’t even think of Kerry’s comment when I heard this story, I’m glad you reminded me. It just shows you how stupid Kerry is that he had to be rescued by people as stupid as our soldiers. 🙂

    It’s a shame our men and women in uniform have more compassion and a better compass than Kerry – they could have just left his sorry ass there to get beheaded and saved us some money in the long run. I hope the cost of this rescue comes out of the loser’s overinflated paycheck.
